Very nice
We were very impressed as the manager rang us to ask when we would be arriving and gave us the choice of an upstairs or down stairs room. I said we would be there in 5 minutes and he said we could book in early and that the rooms were ready and we had a look at the rooms and we picked the one we liked best. We had the upstairs room and had a nice view.

Good Accommodation
Checking in was easy. We had a balcony with a view over the water which was good. Room was clean. Communal kitchen with cooking pans etc. Pool looked clean but weather was too cold for us to use.

Needs a makeover
The location of the property is not bad and the room size was good, but the whole place needs a huge makeover and a good tidy up

Liked the quietness and location. Facilities were mostly good, except the airconditioner/heater was weak, and the TV remote didn't work consistently.

The motel is quite basic and rather dated and a long way from eateries and the CBD though a supermarket is 5 mins away on foot. No breakfast but rooms had microwaves and 'fridges. Comfortable and clean.

Walls paper thin - people in next room were up all night and kept me up all night. No sleep at all. Shower is a drip - no water pressure. No milk provided for coffee. Worst accommodation experience for a long time.

Room very old and smelt. Slept on a slat bed (usually motels have ensembles) mattress not too bad. Kitchenette and bathroom still in the 70’s. It looks like the owners DIY so they don’t spend any $$$ to modernize and bring it into nowadays. Showerscreen door hard to open and nearly came off the hinges
